Biomedical Engineering Faculty


Neera Satsangi, Ph.D.
Associate Professor
Department of Restorative Dentistry

Educational Background:
B.Sc., University of Lucknow, India
M.Sc., University of Lucknow, India
Ph.D., University of Lucknow, India

Areas of Research Interest:

My research accomplishments have concentrated in following areas of biomedical research- (i) the development of novel biomimetic biomaterials for bioengineering, (ii) surface- and bulk-modification of biomaterials by Van der wall interaction, polymeric encapsulation as well as the covalent binding, (iii) low-shrinkage, greater strength, and better esthetic liquid crystalline dental restorative materials, and (iv) the drug design.
